RE: IBM Rational Web Developer for WebsphereSoftwareVersion 6.0

EJBs are still considered a good solution for a specific subset of
projects (some estimate it as low as 5%).  These projects would likely
be LARGE in every sense of the word, and IBM supports large customers'
needs, so it follows reasonably well that IBM's tooling would support
EJBs.

Our architecture uses stored procedures on the iSeries instead of EJBs
or Hibernate/JDO type technologies.  It makes more sense for us and is
blazing fast.

Cool PDF!  I am looking forward to the next version to see what
additional features the IDE has!

One thing that troubles me is every iSeries Java expert that I have
talked to or have sat through their sessions at seminars like DevCon
have said that EJB's are not the way to go. I have also heard from these
experts that even IBM doesn't think EJB's are the way to go (probably
just a sector of IBM), and then I see a PDF like this detailing future
features and it is still pro-EJB.

Are EJB's the way to go or should other technologies like Hibernate and
the like be used if those meet your needs?

I know this has been debated before, and the reason I am asking it again
is to get time sensitive opinions in case they are different from a year
ago.

Thanks,
Aaron Bartell

It will likely be the foundation for WDSC 6.0.
